Blaise Metreweli, the UK’s first female MI6 chief, faces scrutiny after revelations that her grandfather was a Nazi collaborator known as “The Butcher” during WWII.
The historic appointment of Blaise Metreweli as the first female chief of Britain’s Secret Intelligence Service (MI6) has come under scrutiny following reports that her grandfather, Constantine Dobrowolski, was a Nazi collaborator in Ukraine during World War II.
Dobrowolski, dubbed “The Butcher,” allegedly boasted about helping exterminate Jews and executing Ukrainian resistance fighters. According to documents unearthed in German archives, he signed letters to Nazi superiors with “Heil Hitler” and was involved in horrific war crimes, including looting Holocaust victims.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova commented, “Someone seems to be deliberately placing descendants of Nazis in leadership positions in the collective West.”
In response, the UK Foreign Office said Metreweli “neither knew nor met her paternal grandfather” and that her “complex heritage… contributed to her commitment to protect the British public.”
Metreweli was announced earlier this month as the next “C” of MI6, marking a historic milestone for British intelligence—now overshadowed by a growing scandal.
